Living Out the Call of Every Believer
Thank you for giving to missions. Here are several opportunities for you to give.
Missions isn’t just a program—it’s a process and the heartbeat of our faith. At First Baptist Church Powder Springs, we believe every believer is called to live on mission, embracing a life that reflects God’s love and purpose. This process involves worshiping God wholeheartedly, loving others selflessly, serving God faithfully, and inviting others to know Him personally.
Together, we are committed to fulfilling the Great Commission, sharing the hope of Jesus locally and around the world. Join us in living out the mission God has placed on every heart!

How do I know if I'm ready to go on a mission trip?
You don’t have to feel “fully ready” to say yes. A mission trip begins long before you board a plane or load a van—it starts with a willing heart. If you are walking with Christ, open to being stretched, committed to preparation, and eager to serve others, you may be ready. We provide training, team meetings, and spiritual preparation to help you grow in confidence and clarity before you go.
Do I need to be a church member to serve on a mission trip?
How does Fundraising work?
Can I raise financial support?
Yes! We believe mission trips are a shared ministry. Raising support allows others to be part of what God is doing, even if they can’t physically go. We encourage you to prayerfully invite others to partner with you. Many people are eager to invest in the spread of the gospel when given the opportunity.
Do Ineed prior experience or special skills?
No prior mission experience is required. While certain trips may benefit from specific skills (construction, medical, children’s ministry, etc.), the most important qualifications are a willing heart, a servant spirit, and a desire to share the love of Christ. We provide training and preparation before every trip, so you’ll feel equipped and confident in serving.
Should I go or support someone who goes?
Both are meaningful and impactful ways to live on mission. Some are called to go; others are called to send. Scripture shows us that both roles are essential in advancing the gospel. If you’re unsure, start by praying and asking God how He wants you involved. Whether you step onto the field or support someone who does, you are participating in the Great Commission.
